Consider the following: Let $A$ be a commutative ring, let $M$ be an $A$-module. When is the functor from $A$-algebras to Sets given by $R \mapsto R \otimes M$ representable by an $A$-scheme?

Unless I've made a mistake, this is always be an fpqc sheaf. When $M$ is a finitely generated free A-module, then $\mathrm{Spec}( \mathrm{Sym}^\bullet M^*)$ does the trick.
